Billboard has updated its Latin, country, rock and hip-hop charts in order to accurately include data from streaming and downloading via the Internet. It has also maintained some of the traditional methods, such as radio spins.
Basically, whenever one is streaming from Rhapsody or downloading music from iTunes, this data will now be counted as well to reflect what artist/band is being sought out the most.
This is a great idea and it just goes to show how this business continues to evolve and take into account to what fans have to say...something unfortunately some businesses still lack or refuse to change their old ways.
Kudos to Billboard for always trying to stay on top of its game.
